Endocrine and Reproductive Physiology E-Book

Bruce White, Susan Porterfield

Description

Endocrine and Reproductive Physiology, a volume in the Mosby Physiology Monograph Series, explains the fundamentals of endocrine and reproductive physiology in a clear and concise manner. This medical textbook gives you a basic understanding of how endocrine and metabolic physiology affects other body systems in health and disease, including the clinical dimensions of reproductive endocrinology.

• Bridge the gap between normal function and disease with pathophysiology content throughout the book.
• Easily master the material in your systems-based curriculum with learning objectives, Clinical Concept boxes, chapter summaries, and self-study questions.
• Understand complex concepts by examining almost 200 clear, 2-color diagrams.
• Apply what you've learned to real-life clinical situations using featured clinical commentaries.
• Take your learning wherever you go!

• Stay abreast of recent advances in endocrine physiology with expanded material on reproductive endocrinology and metabolism, and many updates at the molecular and cellular level.

Learn the latest developments in fertilization, pregnancy, and lactation, as well as fetal development, puberty, and the decline of reproductive function with age.

Preface
This 4 th edition, Endocrine and Reproductive Physiology , has been updated and, to some extent, reorganized. The most substantive change is Chapter 3 . In fact, Chapter 3 grew to an untenable length for this monograph. Nevertheless, the worldwide type 2 diabetes epidemic emphasizes the need for comprehensive understanding of the role of hormones in regulating energy metabolism. To retain background information, we placed a significant amount of Chapter 3 material online in Student Consult. We think it provides an adequate background for the student to understand the important points of hormonal regulation of energy metabolism.
Also in this 4 th edition, Key Words and Concepts has been moved to Student Consult, along with Abbreviations and Symbols, and Suggested Readings. The student is encouraged to define the key words, stating their importance, function, and interactive molecules, using the text as reference when necessary.
This edition has been reorganized in that the life history of the reproductive systems has been allocated its own chapter. This brings together emb
